Position Summary

​​Are you a strategic problem solver? Are you passionate about improving equity through systemic change? Do you enjoy analyzing data, identifying trends, and telling a story about what you find? Are diversity, equity, and inclusion at the core of what motivates or excites you about work? If these sound like you, this may just be the job for you!

As the HR Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Analyst, you will evaluate Talent Acquisition and Classification and Compensation (TACC) programs, processes, policies, and procedures through the lens of equity and inclusion. From recruitment and hiring, to compensation, to promotions and other internal advancement opportunities, you’ll analyze actions, identify barriers or unintended impacts to underrepresented groups, and collaborate to develop solutions to address them.

In this role you’ll consult on improving processes and procedures, providing recommendations and guidance in detecting and prioritizing key DEI issues that impact recruitment, employee development, growth, retention, and compensation. You’ll develop resource materials and trainings for the campus community, extending awareness of new and existing programs and resources available to help campus leverage best practices for inclusive recruitment and retention as well as equitable pay practices. You’ll also get to create new programs, initiatives, and resources and conduct research and develop proposals related to DEI in recruitment and hiring, compensation, and position changes.

In order to do all this important work, you’ll also dive into the data. You’ll identify available data, analyze trends, determine key metrics, and track and deliver those metrics for internal and external audiences. You’ll use data to tell a story about what can improve and to illustrate why it’s important. You’ll create tools and resources to expand the use on campus of available data to inform practices.
